Bug Description
Zeitgeist should respect the following use cases:

* Tina played a card game at work and found out that this event is shown in her zeitgeist client, she would like to remove this event to hide it from her boss

To post a comment you must log in.
There are several ways of tackling this issue:
1) Either not log events from specific apps (which is solved now) by disabling the plugins in the applications
2) Have a little profiler as in a blacklist for home and another for work. Those could be either actors or subjects. According to the active profile we have a bouncer module in front if the insert method to make sure nothing gets in that is balcklisted.
I see us tackling this issue sooner as we think and I would like to know your opinions on this issue.
